On matchday one, Sarr and Senegal's campaign got underway with a 3-0 win over Botswana in Tangier, which saw the Lions of Teranga storm to the top of Group D.
The Eagles' forward started on the left of an attacking three and played the first 85 minutes, as former Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson gave Senegal the lead shortly before half-time.
Just before the hour, Sarr made his mark, playing a precise pass into the feet of Jackson who - having side-stepped a defender - swept home Senegal's second.
Cherif Ndiaye added a third after 90 minutes to give Sarr and Senegal the perfect start.
On matchday two, it was a less straightforward affair, as Senegal's main competitors in Group D, DR Congo, offered stiffer opposition at Grande Stade de Tangier.
Palace Academy graduate Aaron Wan-Bissaka thought he had fired the Leopards into the lead in the 14th minute, but the effort was ruled out for offside, only for Senegal to dominate the remainder of the half.
DR Congo did improve after the restart however and took the lead from close range through Cedric Bakambu, moments before Sarr was substituted – Sadio Mané grabbing Senegal an equaliser eight minutes later.
On matchday three, Sarr was rested as Senegal cruised to a 3-0 win over Benin, securing their place at the top of Group D.
The result means that Sarr and Senegal will remain in Tangier as they face the third-placed side in Group E at the Grand Stadium on Saturday, 3rd January (17:00).
